My eight year old niece doesn't want to live with her dad any longer.
Sis and B.I.L are now divorced.
My sister is not biologically her mom and never adopted her but has raised her for the past 7 1/2 years. B.I.L. won't let my niece anywhere near my sister, even though she still calls her mom. What can my sister do to get at least visitation? She is willing to pay child support and continue raising her as her mom. Any ideas or websites with legal info? My niece is suffering the most here as this whole mess plays out. She misses her mom and can't understand why she can't see her mom. B.I.L. is using baby girl as a pawn and at this point seems to have all the control...
thanks.

I don't know where you live but where I live nothing can be done my step-daughter even had my last name but I judge said that the court had no jurisdiction.

First is to talk to a lawyer.

There is a way but this would not be right even though it could be legal. I could have used it but the ex now lets her come when she wants. Sometime bitterness will leave and things get better but then again sometimes not.

Good Luck

So do take this suicide possibility heavily. because of the fact in case you do no longer....and he or she does the unthinkable, think of how detrimental that must be. With help, this youthful woman will with any luck have the skill to go previous those techniques. There are some very powerfuble human beings at your community psychological well-being authority. maximum places also have a suicide line and that they could have concepts for you, besides as places to touch. Her college education counsellor ought to have a itemizing of aspects too. don't think her if she tells you that she is positive. Too many mom and dad have stumbled on a newborn lifeless who grew to become into "ok". despite you do...DO something! refer to her. Ask her how the babies teasing her makes her sense. Ask what they are asserting and the way she responds. Do her pals decrease back her up? propose which you would be able to pass and communicate along with her instructors and correct to lead them to conscious of the placement with the bullying. remember that even however this may well be uncomfortable for her and for you besides (suicide could nicely be an rather taboo subject) be the person insist on help. this alluring youthful woman will thank you sooner or later.

Unfortunately, she has no legal right to that child whatsoever. She is not the biological mother, not the adoptive mother and therefore has no rights to the child.

Other states may have different laws, but in Arizona that is how it is.

You might want to have her consult an attorney where she lives.

she might not have legal rights but if she is welling to take good care and support the child then let her have her if he can't do better and she can then go by that no matter what the law is her real mother is not there and she need a mother role model so yeah that's what need to be done...
